Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for May 08, 2015
Transcript:
Miss Wormwood: "Calvin, would you demonstrate the next problem at the board?" Calvin: "Yes Miss Worm-wood. I would be hap-py to do an-y-thing you ask" Calvin: "I have been suc-cess-ful-ly pro-grammed to obey all di-rec-tives. I have no will of my own...my own... my own...my own" Calvin: "Doesn't anybody appreciate theater?"
And now, Calvin, starring in…….. “RoboFlop.”It seems like “Calvin the Robot” has a turntable inside his head, and the record is skipping. But that’s OK, because the Principal will create a new record to add to the collection.Speaking of theater, Miss Wormwood has seen many of Calvin’s performances over the years. Most of them are staged. He usually plays the role of the antagonist.Calvin doesn’t need to work from a script, because he is always capable of making a scene. Especially when he’s on a role.For Puddleglum — in today’s strip: “Exit, stage left!” (Snagglepuss)
